🚨 NETWORK INTERVIEW QUESTION #64 🚨

Users receive valid IP addresses and can access internal network resources, but they still cannot browse the Internet. 🌐❌

During troubleshooting:

βœ… DHCP β†’ Correct IP, subnet mask, gateway & DNS
βœ… Default gateway β†’ Reachable
βœ… DNS β†’ Resolves public domains correctly
βœ… Router β†’ Has Internet connectivity
βœ… User traffic β†’ Reaches the edge firewall
❌ Outbound packets β†’ Still use a private source IP
❌ NAT translation table β†’ No translation entry created

πŸ€” What’s the MOST likely cause?

πŸ…°οΈ Missing / Incorrect NAT Configuration
πŸ…±οΈ STP Root Bridge Failure
πŸ…²οΈ Incorrect DNS TTL
πŸ…³οΈ DHCP Scope Exhaustion

πŸ‘‡ Comment your answer (A, B, C, or D) before checking other comments!
